David Walsh gets a truest.
And David Walsh gets another truest.
The violence comes from the government -- and, read it, this is an Iraq piece.
Ava and C.I. wrote their piece on Saturday -- about THE DETOUR.  They weren't thrilled with it, they wanted to be done with it.  So they could focus on attending the awards.  Somewhere during the handing out of trophies, they texted to say hold off THE DETOUR because they were going to write a piece about the meaning of this year's OSCARS.  Incredible piece as always.
We read some e-mails.
List piece.
More music via repost of Kat's review of Joan Baez's awful album.
What we picked as the winner.
Repost of Marcia's review of a biography about Dusty Springfield.
What we listened to while writing -- you'll note we included some soundtracks.
Repost from Cindy Sheehan.
Repost from WSWS.





Peace,
